two more nominations

There's others that could be nominated. Two who I can think of deserve a nomination:

Dave1976 who's done work for land trusts and loves combining four-wheeling with geocaching.

Kaching Karen who's an awesome educator and has given kids a sense of accomplishment and confidence.

"Given a chance, a child will bring the confusion of the world to the woods, wash it in the creek, turn it over to see what lives on the unseen side of that confusion." --Richard Louv, Last Child in the Woods

There could be small groups set up as needed to handle things that arise and it would be taken into consideration what the needs are and find people who are capable of addressing those needs.

Also, it seems pretty odd that there are three current board members on the "awaiting accept/decline" list. What's holding them back?

That is one of the benefits of having a board on hand, to help set up small groups to do things if they need to be done. It's easier for 5 to set up a basic structure of a project than waiting for 1000 members to reply.

As far as why the remaining board members have not spoken up, I can't speak for them, but I held off for the short time I did fear of looking overly eager. Then I realized so few on the accepted list might make others apprehensive.

What is ironic is 32 people felt the need for an election, yet no more than two of those 32 have nominated themselves or accepted their nomination as of yet.
